Control multiple switches with only one direct connection

I have several (about 10) Open vSwitch based software switches. And I have few hosts connected each of those switches(I already created ovs bridges and added every ethernet interface on a device to them and I also set the controller IP and port) also every switch is connected to one other switch making them a physical network. I need to control all this switches using an OpenDaylight helium karaf distribution running on my laptop.

Can I control all of these switches by only connecting my laptop to one switch? As I understood (using mininet) every switch has to be connected to the controller via a direct line.
